Gluten-Free Corn Dog Muffins

While perusing Pinterest, I saw several different recipes for corndog muffins. I didn’t pin the recipes because they all contained ingredients my kids could have, but the idea kept popping up. I decided corndog muffins would be easy to make gluten-free using my gluten-free cornbread recipe.
My kids loved these corndog muffins! They had not had a corndog in almost 5 years, so they were thrilled with this gluten-free alternative.
I doubled my gluten-free cornbread recipe and added chopped up turkey dogs. Since they are baked instead of fried in oil, they are lower in fat than traditional corndogs.

Is that 1/2 “cup” of oil in the ingredients list?
Yes, thanks for catching my mistake.
I’m going to make some of these for the grandkids when they come over for movie night.
They don’t make corn dogs here in the UK, and they really are a treat when we visit the US. These delicious muffins will definitely satisfy corn dog cravings when we are at home
Thank you for sharing them.
Our last attempt at GF cornbread was extremely unsuccessful so I am eager to give these a try!
I’ve used the Bob’s Red Mill mix to make cornbread and it turned out great!
What brand of cornmeal do you recommend that is gluten free?
Thanks!
I have used Bob’s Red Mill and Arrowhead Mills as well as several other brands. I try to find organic, non-gmo cornmeal without any other added ingredients.
Alea,
What a great kid-friendly snack! Thank you so much for sharing your tasty recipe on Allergy-Free Wednesdays! Be sure to check back next week for recipe highlights (including the top 3 reader choice submissions and hostess favorites).
Be Well!
What a terrific idea! I can’t wait to give it a try.
These turned out great. The only thing I would do is put more hot dogs in it!
